Hi.. Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC.. I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns.. First of all I would like to tell you that if you have a dark complexion since childhood then it is not possible to whiten it as the skin complexion is genetically determined.. Secondly Skinlite is a steroid based cream and initially it can show you good results by lightening your skin tone but to make you aware of the fact that it can cause severe side effects like like skin thinning, pimples, inflammation, rashes, itching, excess hairgrowth and dilated veins under the skin.. Also on long term use the skin becomes addicted or dependant on steroids and once the use is suddenly stopped, there are withdrawal side effects and it is the same thing that you are facing now that is increased pigmentation, rashes, swelling, redness etc.. So in case if you want to improve your complexion you should keep patience and not be in a hurry to lighten it in a month.. You should use safe creams like depigmentation creams containing Kojic acid, glycolic acid, Vitamin E.. Grapessed extreact, licorice etc can help.. Using depigmenting facewash like those containing Salicylic acid and glycolic acid can help.. Treatments like Microdermabrasion and chemical peeling will help.. Hope this information helps.. Thanks and regards. Dr.Honey Nandwani Arora.
